when i am in the presence of greatness i am always aware. i felt this way with sarah the instant she said hello. she might be a senior in high school with regular dreams and intentions, but there's more. she is classic, a beauty we always find ourselves going back to, and at 18 she gets it. she's comfortable in her skin, not trying to be something different than she is. i think that's why i love these photographs, because she's beautiful to look at but it's way beyond that for this girl.
the main reason i love to photograph people is the connection we gain. not many people love to be photographed, it's a vulnerable place, but my goal is to have fun, open them up, and capture something different. for me a photo shoot is more than just snapping some shots, it's about finding common ground. i hope all my clients feel like they are hanging out with an old friend by the time the day is over.
